(coverdale/vandenberg)
The womans name was trouble
She put the blame on me
I asked her what her game was
She said "misery"
I didn't ask no questions
I did not even pray
When the angel on my shoulder
Said I should walk away
You promised me heaven
But, you gave me hell
Cut me down to the bone
With your kiss and tell
Nobody listens to a word I say
Still I'm gonna curse you, woman
'til my dying day
I should have known better
With a girl like you
You shame the devil
With the things you do
I was blind, now I see
A lying woman be the death of me
I got woman trouble blues
Woman trouble blues
You told me it was meant to be
But, all you did was put the hurt on me
You made my life a living hell
And drowned my dreams in the wishing well
I've got woman trouble blues
Woman trouble blues
There ain't no doubt I'm going down
The womans name was trouble
She put the blame on me
I gave her what she wanted
And I got misery
Now I don't take much persuading
At times I'm easily led
I'm gonna find myself in a prison cell
Thro' the lying things she said
I'll stand accused on judgement day
And pray the lord hears what I say
All my life I never learned
I played with fire and I got burned
Woman trouble blues
I got woman trouble blues
Woman trouble blues
Mean ol' woman trouble blues

Whitesnake are a rock band formed in England in 1978 by David Coverdale, after his departure from his previous band Deep Purple. Their early material has been compared by critics to the blues rock of Deep Purple, but they slowly began moving toward a more commercially accessible rock style. By the turn of the decade, the band’s commercial fortunes changed and they released a string of UK top 10 albums, Ready an' Willing (1980), Come an' Get It (1981), Saints & Sinners (1982) and Slide It In (1984), the last of which was their first to chart in the US and is certified 2x platinum.
